Overview
Pathophysiology
The exact pathogenesis of DRESS syndrome is poorly understood. It is thought that an interaction between genetic and environmental factors is responsible for the development of DRESS syndrome.
Genetics
- Genetic deficiency of detoxifying enzymes, such as epoxide hydrolase deficiency, results in accumulation of toxic metabolites and subsequent activation of immunologic reactions.[1] DRESS syndrome is more common among slow acetylators.[2]
- The variation of the incidence of DRESS syndrome across families and ethnicities may suggest a significant role for genetics in the pathogenesis of DRESS syndrome.[3]
- DRESS syndrome is associated with certain human leukocyte antigen (HLA), such as:[4][5][6][7]
- HLA-B*1508
- HLA-B*1502
- HLA-B*5701
- HLA-B*5801
Pathogenesis
- It is thought that toxic accumulation of metabolites results in the activation of interleukin-5 (IL-5), which results in the activation of eosinophils and the downstream inflammatory cascade.[8][9][1]
- It is unknown how drug interactions are associated viral activation and clinical manifestations of DRESS syndrome, but expansion of both virus-specific and non-specific T-cells is often observed with DRESS syndrome and herpes virus reactivation (e.g. CMV, EBV, HHV6, and HHV7) is common among patients with DRESS syndrome. Accordingly, it has been postulated that in addition to the clonal expansion of drug-specific T-cells, antiviral T-cells may cross-react with drugs and result in concomitant expansion of viral-specific T-cells.[10]
Pathology
Microscopic Histopathological Findings
DRESS syndrome is not characterized by a specific finding on histopathological analysis of skin biopsy. The following findings may be present:[11][12]
- Non-specific lymphocytic infiltration
- Involvement of the papillary dermis
- Abundance of eosinophils
- Band-like infiltrate of atypical lymphocytes
- Epidermotropism that resembles mycosis fungoides
